“How can you not root for Brunson?” I hate when people say this. It’s easy to root against him if I’m a Sixers, Celtics, Bucks or fan of any team trying to beat him. But that said, I think the fervor surrounding him is too high off his game 4. This number is just too high. It’s emotional. Let’s play under and be logical.

LeBron on road in an elimination game. This means more usage. More ball in his hands. Ore drives to the hoop. More than points and rebounds .

Murray has a calf issue. And I’m not sure how much it will limit him. But at 35.5 he will need to play well and do more than score and I’m not sure any game script helps him. Under.

San Diego hasn’t pitched well lately…but tonight at home v a Reds team that is battling the flu I like this ML price. Plus, the Reds SP is overvalued

Max Fried has stepped up for the Braves. Last time out he threw a complete game shut out. I wonder how deep he’ll go this time so I’m going to isolate the first five innings and take the Braves on the money line.

Freeman hasn’t been great but you can see all the signs of a good player about to break out. Love the price here as well in a game where the Dodgers should score 5

Tatum has been SHOCKINGLY consistent in this series: Book him for 40 min 18 shots 7 3pt attempts 8 made FTs The only times he has been under 26 pts is when he has combined to go 3/15 from 3. This is simple: If he’s not awful from 3 he goes over. Plus, even IF awful he has the ability to close out the series with cheap FTs….lots of good game scripts here

This number has come down. Like Mel Gibson in Braveheart I was saying “hold….hold….hold….NOW!” Now meaning at 18.5 this is simply too low for my projections. Pounce now

Miami is a team that will need to hoist threes…..when they miss the Celts can get out. Plus, FTs in the 4th should send us over. Half unit
